Looks to me like Discovery have managed to get a similar deal as UKTV after their carriage dispute to unshackle their free channels from Sky ie the parent channel is allowed to go onto Freesat, but the +1's remain encrypted for now.

I wonder if VM will put these into their free M/Player packs so that their 'free' TV pack customers can benefit from this change??

When Really went FTA, this was moved down to the lowest pack, but the latest Freeview additions look to be in M+/Mix.

If we say that Netflix is £6 per month, that works out at 50p a week off over the 18 months!

Anyone who is definitely staying with VM might as well go for it, but this would leave you locked in for 18 months, meaning VM cancellation fees if you move to a non VM cabled area and not in a position to be able to negotiate a discount.

I pay around about £5.70pm for uhd netflix it takes a bit of work but you get a brazilian vpn use that to sign up to netflix it'll accept your normal debit/credit card once done you can watch netflix as normal atm for me it's uk, usa and canada the others are still being worked on by my vpn provider.
But you can still sign up via brazilian netflix (brazil vpn).

But ask yourself why should we pay more for less content? UK netflix has a lot less content than USA or Canada yet we pay more.
If Netflix did fairer pricing then people wouldn't go through these dadgy practices.
